Once I tried making my own granola, I never wanted to eat store-bought again!

"I have already made it twice now ! wonderful recipe ! it's very yummy ! must give it a try !
be careful about adding the salt ! first time I read it mistake, i add 3/4 'cup' of salt instead of teaspoon ! lol !"

I like this nice,basic recipe. For variety, you can use different combinations of nuts and seeds, and dried fruit as well. This goes perfectly with homemade yogurt, and fresh fruit...yum!

Making it again!!!! Loved it. This time, I am making it with everything sans the nuts and I am adding Raisin Bran in lieu of nuts.

Stirring the mixture while baking is important, otherwise scortching may occur. [I posted this recipe.]
